Spell Check Bot / Crawler

[cmoylan]

Hi guys,

Does anyone know of a script / app / bot / browser plugin that will crawl an entire website, examine the content, and report on any spelling (or grammar) mistakes?

Many thanks.

CheckDog will do 100 pages of spell checking for free http://checkdog.com/.Don't know of any place that does grammar checking. I wonder if there are any mechanical turk third party providers that do that?

In my case, I run a forum with thousands of pages of user generated content. I can't afford the spell checking services for that amount of content, and I'm OK with leaving things in the user's original voice. What I did do was go into Google Analytics and export my top content by page title, 500 titles at a time. I copied and pasted the spreadsheet column with the titles into Word, and found the spelling errors in the titles of the posts. I went back and corrected those.

Thanks Matthew. Looks like an interesting service.

Thanks Ganesh. Unfortunately that plugin doesn't work with FF12.

I'm amazed a spelling bot isn't available as a browser plugin.
